I can’t begin to describe how much I love (and missed!!) slut!Lando. Now come here boy and live by what you preach 👅

i started ivyvolturra-poetry thinking it would just be a small place to throw my poems and the occasional aggressively nerdy essay about linguistics, etymology, symbolism, or whatever niche thing possessed me that week. somehow, it became so much more than that.

it honestly means the world to me that people not only read my writing, but stay for it. every like, reblog, tag, reply, and follow has made this little corner of the internet feel alive in a way i never expected.

also slightly insane that this blog now has over double the amount of followers than posts. you people are either incredibly supportive or collectively enabling me.

i also have student council elections coming up soon, and i’m hoping to submit this blog as one of my achievements while applying for magazine editor again this year, so if you enjoy my writing, i’d be endlessly grateful for any reblogs/shares/follows to help this space grow a little more before mid-june <3

they're talking about how they're no longer interested in dating because their female friends treat them better than boyfriends do. they're realizing that being single is always better than being in a bad relationship. it's becoming a lot more normal and fun and hot for women to be single at any age. the women who have settled down with truly good men in truly happy relationships are encouraging other women to not take any shit because the right man won't need to be "trained". they're talking about how their mothers and grandmothers warned them to get a job and not get married, and they followed the advice.
